A new documentary film, "Looking for Superman" suggests that American education is severly flawed. Is this view justified?

Taft-Hartley clearly states, and a number of court cases have confirmed, that non-union members can be compelled to pay only that portion of union dues that is attributable to the cost of representing employees in collective bargaining and providing the service that are given to union members. Indeed, the law specifically states that non-members cannot be required to pay for the union’s political activities or for the costs incurred by the union resulting from organizing employees.

“ "It doesn't matter to us if [workers] join or not, just as long as they have the right to decide," he said.”

“Dennis Gannon, former president of the Chicago Federation of Labor. In 2004, he began receiving more than $150,000 a year after retiring at age 50 from a $56,000-a-year city job that he had left nearly 13 years earlier. He received his city pension while collecting a salary of about $200,000 from the federation. During his lifetime, the city municipal pension fund will pay him approximately $5 million. Gannon told the Tribune that he was only following the law in filing for a city pension.”

'Right-to-Work' Laws Explained, Debunked And Demystified

English: Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder (Photo credit: Wikipedia) One of the enduring myths of legislation designed to bring ‘right-to-work’ laws to the states is the notion that these laws actually have something to do with the right to work.

Why does a right-wing republican repeater feel the need to abase unions and their members when unions have done so very much for all labor ? Wouldn't be so bad except for your total ignorance of unions and their affairs ! For "people" like wrongriki , who cant accept the facts that prove them wrong , its a sad state of affairs that even after being debunked they keep up this constant barrage of ignorant right-wing crappola !Wrongriki and others like it are all that's wrong with these forums ! (we are ohio.co m )

Well here you go but head , it isn't going to get anymore credible than the "Bureau of Labor Statistics" According to a January 2011 Bureau of Labor Statistics report, workers who belong to a union typically earn higher pay than non-union workers doing the same kind of job. Although it varies based on sector and occupation, the overall averages are striking.

$917 = Median weekly earnings in 2010 of union members.

$717 = Median weekly earnings in 2010 of non-union workers.

That's a yearly difference in salary of $10,400 for union members vs. non-union members.

Union members earn an average of $4.95 more per hour - which equates to a yearly difference of $10,300. (we are ohio.co m)
